▎ 摘  要

We present an effective method for actively controlling intrinsic resonances of optical metamaterials using graphene. Exploiting the Fermi level shift and associated variations in optical transitions of graphene due to voltage biasing, we attain the ability to significantly modulate the intrinsic resonance of the fishnet structure. Despite being atomically thin and having a weak optical response, graphene can be strongly coupled with the left-handed resonance of the fishnet metamaterial. We unambiguously demonstrate that the resonant transmission, absorption, and effective constitutive parameters of the graphene-coupled fishnet metamaterial can be precisely controlled by varying the bias voltage.
